I'm going to go with "feel better."

Or, FBTFU.

Get yourself well, mate.

Don’t like the colours. They’re clashing with my SPRING here, you see ;-)

What about the ochre... even worse than the taupe :(

The purple of the comment box kind of reflects all the jacarandas out at the moment

My comment box is taupe... is this going to be like the ochre question? ;)

More a pale mauve, to me

by Lou... on Oct 27, 2009 5:38 AM EDT up reply actions

I can go with that, but the gold/ ochre stuff is

actually babyshit brown. Same as in Trivial Pursuit :)

Mines a bit more puple than taupe.

OK, maybe not jacaranda purple, but there must be some pretty spring flowers it matches.

I’ve never been able to figure out what colour mauve actually is! I seem to remember a similar discussion during the Giro about what colour the ciclamino actually is.

by celerity on Oct 27, 2009 5:43 AM EDT up reply actions

I'm saying fuschia on the Giro, pale purple on the mauve

BS brown for the rest ;)

I like the fall colors.

They look especially nice with my “anti-glare” (i.e. anti-nosy office mates) screen cover.

Hope you feel better. Please don’t sneeze on your keyboard, I’m not sure if my anti-virus software is up to date.

This screen cover....I need one!!
